Joel Porter = Marquee = Taking the piss? Dunno.
Look, if it's a matter of having him as a Marquee or not having him at all (due to the salary cap) which would you go for? Look at this video:

If this guy gets anywhere near the form he shows in some of those goals he will tear the A-League apart. This guy is class... He's quick, left footed and looks to be more skillful with the ball at his feet than Smeltzy. There's a goal in that video at about 1:35 where the ball comes to him laterally at high speed and he flicks it up with the inside of his right and then somehow does this amazingly acrobatic flick with his left to chip the ball over the unsuspecting CB and Keeper. How can the prospect of this guy coming not get you excited?!
Just watched the video. Porter does it for me! Stunning...
